I walk across a floor that makes squeaking noises under my feet. I've been drinking, am I exaggerating? The host's wife told someone that I was a warrior. That's how I felt too. I'm still walking around, exaggerating. The host still likes me. I realise that when I walk on my toes, the floor makes no noise. I hold a baby in my arms that wants to be carried. I look at it. It has big dark eyes. I am afraid to let it fall down. The child says what it wants.
Along a street, I play piano notes, some wrong but I will correct them later. I think the simple piano fits the end scene of the film perfectly. The scene is a little too long, so I stop playing and will later move all the music to the back of the film. I arrive at my childhood home. It's supposed to be my parents' wedding anniversary. The 50th? There are long rows of tables in the living room where lots of people are sitting and eating breakfast. I want to leave straight away, but I wave to everyone and they wave back. My two cousins are sitting at the back. I go to the bar to see my brother. I lie down across the bar and lean my head back to sleep. Then I continue playing music. I remember that I forgot to say hello to my cousins and go to them. There I hold my aunt in my arms with such vigour that we fly across the room unrestrained. Was I too impetuous? But then I greet my cousins.
